In the case of animals those are known, as I'm sure you are fully aware, as Artificial Insemination and Slaughtering.

Your point seems to be that anything done to an animal is just as bad as doing it to a human. I'm not sure you can apply human ethics codes to animals. The animals certainly don't apply it to each other.
